Yeah but in practice virtually zero of them are actually closed loop. Even when it is claimed they are there is often a cooling tower which is used sometimes, which means they only sometimes operate in a closed loop mode.
Godwin's law obviously has no modern relevance given that it was invented for USENET and that was effectively destroyed.
Now seriously though it never spoke to whether or not the comparisons to Hitler were apt, as that is situational, only that they would occur.
And sidebar, Mike Godwin explicitly stated that such a comparison is apt when it comes to der pedofuhrer. Just like to toss that in there.
The guys who built those giant ovens could have told themselves that somebody was going to be baking a whole lot of bread
Somebody wired up all those ICBM missile silos too. The ones who do think all of the above is just fine. There will always be someone.
This is why there's no ethical consumption under capitalism. The worst people have the most money because they have no compunctions about harming others.
It doesn't actually provide that because of the things you can't do in unit files without scripts.
When systemd proponents can construct a non-fallacious argument maybe I'll consider taking it seriously
There is no value to running SteamOS on your PC over some other distribution except simplicity. If you actually want to do non-game things with it you'll wind up installing enough additional packages to erase the benefit. If you want simplicity, you'll also buy a steam machine, so you don't have to figure out the PC.
The controller is separate and is $80????
Yes, controllers generally cost $80 now. They used to cost $50, but there's this thing called inflation.
Skipping the paywalled article I found these specs and was underwhelmed.
Sure it looks fine for playing mid games but my guess was something unique, unified RAM or a clever bus or something. It seems like a decently tuned Ryzen build. I do like the lower TDP on the CPU which should be doing less work.
A nice form factor for those who don't build their own.
Hopefully this is their entre into the PC world and v2 will have more innovations.
What's most cool is the generation of teenagers who will have default Arch/KDE instead of default Windows.
i know someone is that situation, after being incarcerated for less than a year.
he does have assets & some savings he hasn't touched yet but were it not for that, he'd be screwed.
"Do you want to have heart surgery performed by someone who didn't know their shit, and cheated on their exams?"
if you live where someone could become a board-certified surgeon by having someone take their exams, you're in a shithole country
Like with drugs, how many get away with it because they have the right connections?
ask the man who said "i run the country and the world".
don't expect an honest answer
Some professional printers do have their spools in cartridges, and refuse to work without them...
5 axis printers using non-planar slicing are becoming more common in pro use, they allow you to print things without supports which would have required supports.
managing hundreds of machines with basic tools is a chore. I also believe that that argument for systemd was, vm users don't need to control their own environments
systemd might make sense for ephemeral VMs. That doesn't justify it for long-running servers or desktops.
Somebody's terminal is dropping bits. I found a pile of them over in the corner.
